"I see the bad moon arising. / I see trouble on the way. "
- J. John Fogerty

I've been playing with the beta version of Microsoft Office 2010. So far, I'm a bit concerned. The primary goal of this version is to enable cloud based computing. Which I suppose is great if you are into that, but I ain't. The user interface seem somewhat clumsy compared to Office 2007. I'm guessing the interface changes were made to better support operation in the cloud but it's not wowing me.

More importantly, it fails the "Headliner" test. When I moved her from Office 2003 to Office 2007 her response was "Cool, great, love it". Office 2010 she has banned from her laptop for all eternity.

I wonder what would happen if I secretly replaced her Microsoft Office with Open Office....
